Caring for Your Scentique Maison Candle

Hey candle lover! Whether you’re here for the aesthetic vibes or the delicious scents our candles provide, we’ve got some handy tips to ensure you enjoy every last flicker safely and beautifully. Let’s dive into the care instructions for your unique latte inspired candle—perfect for creating café vibes right at home!

Candle Care Starts with the Wick

Your wick plays a crucial role in how your candle burns. Before each use, trim the wick to approximately ¼ inch. This small step helps maintain a steady flame, reduces smoke, and minimizes soot. A properly trimmed wick also keeps your candle burning longer and more evenly.

A wax blend that smells like bliss

Your candle is made with a natural soy wax base, chosen for its clean-burning and eco-friendly qualities. We’ve blended it with gel wax to create those realistic looking iced cubes, giving the candle a dreamy latte appearance. Gel wax enhances its clarity and fragrance throw, creating an inviting and long-lasting scent experience.

The First Burn Matters

The first time you light your candle, let it burn for at least two hours, allowing the wax to melt evenly to the edges of the container. This prevents tunneling (the stubborn wax ring that refuses to melt) and ensures a smooth, consistent burn for future use.

Handle with Care

While it’s tempting to enjoy your candle for hours on end, keep each burn session to a maximum of four hours. Overburning can cause the container to overheat, which isn’t ideal for your candle or your space. Always place your candle on a heat-resistant surface, away from anything flammable or drafty (like that open window or your laptop charger). If your candle’s container starts to feel hot, it’s time to give it a break. Remember, your candle is for ambiance—not a stovetop!
